We trust that tbo Commissioners will lose
;
no thme in securing suffirdent funds to renew
the payment of the small weekly allowances
to the families of volunteers who may be in
. , •
.nerid of assistance. Indeed, we would rather
Fee tiom levy a two mill tax at once, than
wait to - the first of June,.as suggested. If
the war should cease, and the money should
not be .oeeded, it could be applied for other
purposes. A all events, . relief should
be extended to all who are in need,
in eonsequen of the absenee„ pf their
hydiands, frith re and brothers in the army.
7t is due to th as a right, and the expense
ShOuld not be Nicked upon- ai •a \ berthus -by
those who ar .
'called upon to meet it. This
relief is not - charity, but A debt which those
.in comfortable )ciretimstanceiat home owe to
the-families of those brave men. who are on
the battle field. - What is a two mill tax com
pared with the hardship, the Buttering, and
~the privatiens•Vrbich many of our men are un
dergoing T . The hospitals, the grave-covered
battle fields,'Und the wailing of widows find
orphans, shoal& be a sufficiaat answer to the
money-grubs who croak about not being able
to pay the two--mill tax. There are men in
the county—men of wealth,;too—who would
never pay a - dollar to the war, unless it were
squeezed cod of them by taxation, while the
noble and generous have subscribed upon all
occasions. .
What was the nducemant held out to vol
unteers by those who could not, (or dfil not,)
go to the war? "Go I Never mind your
families ! We'll take - care of them I" Ttli3
was the promise made by the people, and the
faith of every county in the State stands
pledged for the support of those families.
The honor of the Commonwealth is also at
stake in this matterjaaving given full power
to every county to levy and collect a tax for
his purpose. These pledges so made by the
people, were repeated by Governor Curtin to
every regiment before they departed from
their homes. They were encouraged to march
forth, by the assurance that the Government
and 'people in whose behalf they battled,
would never desert
the families made helpless
and orphaned by the - absence of their natural
'protectors. These pledges have been thus far
redeemed by Allegheny county, and it be-
Itoovesher . representatives at this juncture
not to listen to the nonsense atsiut the inabil
ity of the people to pay a two mill tax for
such a purpose.
A good deaLhai been said about persons
getting relief who did not need it, and others
suffering who would not apply. That some
unworthy applicants are supplied, is no argu
ment against furnishing relief to those who
are deserving, and it is the business of the
Sub-Committees to see that they pay nothing
to those who lire net entitled to it- On the
other band, those who will not avail thein
selves of the fultd, have themselves to blame
--but we appfeliend this class iscomparatively
smalL There are hundreds who need and de
serve assistancti, and for the wants of these
immediate pro.rssion should be made, as they
are pow sufferink from a stoppage of their
customary stolles.

us to suffer the ,fair lady to spoil all our mu

the four lines following, we should \ certainly
decide on some pretty, inoffensive - way of

road Washington, in sixty days, sod pay
$lO,OOO annually to the city.
Mr. Wright also presented petitions for a

from Indiana. • -
Mr. Wilson, of Mass., offered a resolution,
that the Secretary of War report to tae Senate
whether one Frederick Emory,, who . murdered
in Leavenivorth,Kansas,in 1855,
or 1856, bad. been appointed to any place in
the department of Kansas.
Mr.. Lane, of Kansas, said that the Goyim
meat, to-day, had before it the Kansas diffi
culty, and he presumed would remedy. the
evils. The resolution was laid over. .
Mr. Davis, of Ky.; offered a resolution, de
claring that the war carried on by the United
States of America, should - be vigorously pros
ecuted and continued; to compel obedience to
the Constitution and, laws,.in the limits of
every territory, by all the citizens and resi
dents thereof, and for no further end what
ever.
On motion of Mr. Sumner, of Mass., the
resolution was laid over.
On motion of Mr. Wilson, of Mass., the res
olution, asking the Military Committee
to enntaire whether any furthee,legislation is
necessary to prevent soldlererand officers re
:turning fugitive staves was taken up.
Mr. Sherman, of Ohio, said he was glad
that the Senator from lowa in hie speech had
celled attention to the conduct of some officers
concerning fugitives- =De said that one Gen
eral, who recently made an order returning
fugitive slaves, was Chative of fdiseachusetts,
and he (Mr. Sumner) had need his inflothce
to get htm appointed. , If ho had known Gen.
.Hooker would haver made snob an:order" be
would never have tried to secure his appoint
ment. When a General falls in battle, some
honor mingles the feeling of regret; 'but when
a General falls as General. Hooker has fallen;
there is nothing brit .regret to be felt. De
referred to the order of General Doubleday as
a contract, in wbieh ho did honor to his coun
try. Ile also referred to the mime of Gen
eral McCook in the West, and the Provost
Marshal, of Lemisville, as a disgrace to the
army. Do read an account of the oppression
to which the blacks at Louisville had to sub :
mit.
Mr. Davis, of Ky., asked where he got that
account.
Mr. Sumner replied from a newspaper in
New York.
Mr. Davis said there was no: doubt of Its
falsity.
Mr. Wilton, of Mutt., said he bad abundant
evidence of the disgraceful treatment of fugi
tive slaves by portions of the army.
The morning hour having expired, the con
fiscation bill was taken zip.
Mr. Wilson, of Mass., offered an amend
ment to the sixth section of Mr. Collamer's
substitute, authorizing the President to make
a proclamation and free Lthe sliveis of those
who continue.in the. rebellion 'for thirty days
after the time of its issue.
Mr. Morrill said that some of the bills, like
those of the Senators from New York and
Ohio, are bills.meant to effect something, and
to touch the rebellion, and are produced by
men who Mein to crush the rebellion. The
other bills are a clan - not intended' to effect anytting, and are prOdices by' men who do
not mean to do anything. The bill before
the Senate was calculated to strike directly at
the rebellion.
Mr. lloWe, of Wisconsin; disclaimed any
fear to act on the subject, bat had voted to re
fer the subject to a Select Committee, because
be thought it might simplify matters. He did
not believe that the passage of the bill would
especially Inflame the rebels, Or strengthen
the friends of the Government. He was in
favor of some confiscation act—but he could
not ray Hattie favored this act, for be had
not had time to examine it.
Mr. Davis asked to have an ismeadthent
read to the effect that the title to all property
forfeited under the act shall vest in the per
eons or heirs' of those who entered the' ervice
of the United States during the rebellion, and
have been killed or disabled, and in the Union
men whose properly has been seized and con
fiscsted by the rebels. He said there were
many Senators whole chief object was to de.
stroy slavery, no matter what else was done.
He contended at some length that the trae
policy of confiscation was to devote the prop.
arty according to his proposed amendment;
He denied that slavery was the cause of the
war. He contended at some length that the
free States were responsible for the war of
1962, the war of Mexico, and the repeal of the
Missouri Cousprimise.. ,
If the free States had not brought slavery
into Congress wo should not have had the
present trouble.. He referred to. the plidges
of the Republican party and said that Wiley
passed this bill they would , arraythb whole
Southern people against the' law. He was
willing that slavery should. LAO" its claim...-
of war and willing that slaves should be con-
Amsted like other property; but if the Senate .
intend to make war on slavery then there
will only be another war began. The , people
of New England had developed the mind
to a great extent, but they were so smart and
conceited as to think that they can MUlllite_
everybodfs business and therefore they were
meddiersi and continually pokleg their- noses
into other people's bucket of swill., After
further discussion the Senate went into execu
tive session and subsequently adjourned.

Inhuman Conduct of the Rebels.
The following is the conclusion of the re
port of the Coannittee on the Conduot of the
War, in regard to the rebel atrocities at Ma
nassas, a portion of which was received by
telegraph :
•
Inhumanity to the littrig been the Wil
ing trait of the Tol o l leaders, but ikyras re
served tar your committee to died... as a con
certed !yam their inadte to the wounded and
-their mutilation and deteeration of the gallant
dead. Oar - soldiers taken prisoners in- honor
able battle have been subjected to the most
shameful treatment. All the considerations
that inspire chivalric emotions and generous
consideration for brave men have been disre
garded.
,
It is almost beyond belief that the men
fighting in such a cause as ours, and sustain
ed by a government which, in the midst 'or
violence. nd treachery, has given repeated
evidences of Its indidgence, should have been
subjeCted to treatment never before resorted
to byane foreign 'nation in a conflict with
another. Alf the courtesies of professioial
and ciriLlife seem . to hive 'been discarded.
General Beauregard himself,- who, on a very
recent ocrcasion, boasted that he had been con
trolled by human feelings, after the' battle *of
Bull Rue coidlyproposeti . to hold General
Ricketts e a hostage for one of the murderous
privateers, and the rebel . surgeons (Retained
intercourse and communication with our ewn
surgeons taken in honorable
.battle.
The outrages upon the dead will revive the
'recollections of the cruelties to which savage
tribes • subject .their-prisoners. They were
buried. in many cases naked, with their faces
downward. They were left to decay in the
open air, thei.: bona being carried off as traph
ivs sometimes, as the testimony proves, to be
used as personal adornments, and one witness
deliberately avers that the bead of one of our
•most gallant officers was cut of by a secesion
ist to be turned into a drinking-cup on the
occasion of his marriage.
Monstrous as j this revelation may appear to
be, your committee.have been informed that
during the last two weeks the shill of a Union
soldier has been exhibited is the oflice of the
Sergeant-at-Arma of the noun of Represent
atives which- had been converted to such a
purpose, and - which had been found on the
person of One of the:rebel prisoners taken in
a recent . conflict.
The testimony of Governor Spragne,ofithode
Island, is most interesting. .ft confirms the
I worst reports against the rebel soldiers, and
conclesively proves that the body of one of
the bravest, officers in, the "volunteer service
was burned. Ile does ot hesitate to add that
this hyena-desecration ; of the honored corpse
was because the rebel believed it to be the
body of Colonel Slocum, against whom they
were infuriated for having displayed so much
courage and chivalrj , in forcing his regiment
fearlessly and bravely :uponthem.
These discoveries, establishing as they in
contestably do the constant. inhumanity of the
rebel leaders, will be read with sorrow and in
dignation by the people of the loyal states.
They shouldinspire these people to renewed
exertions to protect our country from the res
toration to power of such men.
They should, and we believe they
arouse the disgust and horror of foreign na
tions against this unholy rebellion. Let it be
our duty, nevertheless, to furnish a continued
contrast to Mil barbarities and crimes. Let
us persevere in the good work of maintaining
the authority of the Conetitition, and of re
fusing to imitate the monstrous practices we
have been called upon to investigate.
Your committee beg to say, - in conclusion,
that they have not yet been able to gather
testimony in regard to theadititiOnal inquiry
suggested by the resolution• of 'the Senate
whether Indian savages have been employed
by the rebels in military service against the
government of the United litotes, and bow
such warfare hal been conducted by. said sav
ages, but that they have taken proper steps
to attend to this Important duty.
